CLIMB OUR MOUNTAIN, TOGETHER
Trails don’t build or maintain themselves. 100% of the costs of trail building and maintenance at Sky Tavern are covered by fundraising. For 2026, Sky Tavern is launching a donation match campaign. A local foundation has challenged us to engage the community to match their generous donation for trail maintenance.
Participation in our programs and events will contribute to our goal, forwarding the next phase of bike park expansion including the completion of a Friend Zone, a beginner-intermediate progression flow trail, and a new beginner trail in the meadow with rollers, berms, and features.
Donations from the community are the foundation of public trail access. If you enjoy shredding Sky Tavern, please contribute to the next phases of development.
